@elonmusk Our work for an EPC company that builds natural gas power generation plants, and you can feel the tsunami wave of BtM contracts coming, but not at the rate that we are building data centers. Honestly, our biggest constraint is human capital. And data centers are taking it all.

@CJVogel_OTF @HankSouthOTF @davideckert98 @ontexasfootball Well, at least he didn’t say they had their best practice all year. We know how that went last time.

FSD could literally free up OVER $1.5 trillion/yr... WHY isn't anyone talking about this??

If Lawmakers were serious about serving the people, they would start focusing on how to speed up FSD adoption.

The Data:
Fatal & serious crashes cost the U.S. almost $2 trillion per year in total societal harm; including ~$400 billion in direct economic costs in the form of:
- medical bills
- property damage
- lost wages
- enormous quality-of-life cost of lost years
- permanent disability

Tesla’s latest FSD data shows vehicles with FSD engaged are ~9× SAFER than the average driver.

That means, if fully adopted, FSD could produce savings the size of any one of these:
- ~6% of GDP
- The entire Social Security program
- Medicare AND Medicaid
- Roughly 2× the defense budget

At this scale, FSD (and technologies like it) could be one of the first real steps toward an age of AI "abundance" people talk about.

50 years from now, our children and grandchildren will look back in horror at the fact that we ever drove at all.

@AmandaMAtwell Where has Zina and Vasek been this year? Wesley is a tough loss in the context of Simmons being out. This season was always going to be a test of depth.

@Longhornfrenzy1 More chaos!

@Longhornfrenzy1 Happy birthday man

@gabraham12 @Longhornfrenzy1 Ok. Cool. Hook ‘em 🤘

@NotaBurnerr007 Keep Sark but force the man to get an OC. His fatal flaw is choosing his ego over what is best for the program

[Tillman Holloway @TEXASOL61]

Fourth-and-1 at midfield today. Fourth-and-2 in the fourth quarter. We got stopped both times, and Florida scored a touchdown after each one.

Coach Sark,

I played for Texas. I was a team captain and an All-American on the Forty Acres. I love this program, so writing this hurts. I'm only doing it because I think one thing is holding us back, and I'd rather say it to you straight than keep yelling at my TV.

Please hand the play sheet to someone else.

You've done a lot for this place. Two straight playoff semifinals and an SEC title game in our first year. Texas matters again because of you, and I'm grateful. I'm not calling for your job. Not even close.

But look at the big moments. Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl, first-and-goal at the 1, and we walked away with nothing. Ohio State again last year, fourth-and-goal from inches, we stayed in a speed package and got stuffed. You said yourself you'd probably sub if you could do it over.

Last week against OU it was third-and-1 at our own 45 and we threw a little pass to the back that lost 2. Tied 24-24, two minutes left, fourth-and-2 at their 35, we sent out the kicker for a 53-yarder. Today you called the fourth-down run "not very good design."

I went back through the official play-by-play. In our two losses this year we converted 4 of 11 third and fourth downs with two yards or less to go.

That's not all on the line or the backs. Nobody is getting push right now. We're running for about 3.6 a carry. That's exactly why this offense needs a coach whose whole week is the offense. Your job never stops. Recruiting, the portal, NIL, a 100-plus man roster. That's a full-time job by itself.

History backs this up. The last head coach to win a national title calling his own offensive plays was Jimbo Fisher, in the 2013 season. No champion in the playoff era has done it. Ryan Day gave the calls to Chip Kelly in 2024 and won it all. You won a ring at Alabama calling plays for Coach Saban.

You already have Kyle Flood with the coordinator title. Let him call it, or bring in someone you trust. Then you get to be the head coach on fourth-and-1, seeing the whole field.

This is the school that ran the wishbone to titles in '69 and '70. Earl Campbell ran for 1,744 yards in '77. Ricky Williams left with 6,279. We know who we're supposed to be. And our defense is holding teams under 3 yards a carry. We can win with that.

After OU you said "not a chance" about giving up the calls. I'm asking you to think about it one more time. For the players.

Hook 'em.

Texas fans, if you agree, please repost and tag @CoachSark. #HookEm

@JoshPateCFB You have the most pissed off fanbase in all of football watching this hot mess right now. Who knew Sark’s seat could get so hot so quick.

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@AmandaMAtwell The timing of this coincides with Dylan Raoila and Oregon’s win. I can’t imagine saying this out loud and taking myself seriously.

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@Longhornfrenzy1 Sure that’s not a @longhornfrenzy1 burner account?

@AggieFootball @tylerwhite2023 @RayGuyAward Punter awards are the best consolation prize there is. TBH, we had Dickinson, and as great as he was, it was a hard thing to celebrate.

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@CoopersBBQAggie Cooper’s is fantastic. Being an Aggie… well, that’s a different list entirely.

You guys make good barbecue. We’ve got issues with the list, and I might bump you guys for what it’s worth. To whoever wrote the list, don’t leave Corskscrew out of your top ten ever again.

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@TheTexasHomer He wrote it all down and never once tried the beat. Not how you want to be internet famous. Appreciate the confidence though.

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@lufitoom Bro needs to spend the last half of his career on TV. I’d watch this every day.

[Lufifi @lufitoom]

CRAB LEGS! James is an absolute treasure. 😆

[Daniel Earp @Dtrain617]

@michellelynnn94 I know the back shoulder pass to Wingo was great, but this was Arch’s best play of the game.

@billyliucci @AmandaMAtwell @UT_Mangler @KweeenieB Maroon colored glasses came off early this year.
